Every five years or so, we have to relitigate whether Eli Roth is a horror wunderkind or an overrated homework copying hack and every time the answer is homework copying hack and yet in another five years we're back in the same place discussing the same thing to the same end.

Went to see Ice Cream Man tonight. I think it's going to make a clean sweep at the Razzies this year. The most impressive thing was only 6 people walked out.

A ½ review of Ice Cream Man (2026)

Bear with me here - I think if they shave 86 minutes off the run time, sack the writers and let the actors go, this might be salvageable.

I don't think people are ready for this kind of joke yet.

Just incredible commitment to the bit

It's a record-breaking weekend at the box office. 🍿 Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey helped deliver the biggest box office weekend in U.S. history. See what movie fans on Bluesky are saying about both films and more in @notnixon.com's Screen Pulse custom feed.

R.I.P Jimmy. Doubt many other comedians wrote a thank you letter when you buy merch. Forget he lived just up the road too

The family is out so I watched the original Odyssey.

I don't think people are ready for this kind of joke yet.

The Cape Fear TV show isn't perfect, but one highlight is the kick ass score inspired by the movie. Also those opening titles are very cool.

Took a break from moving and walked around mid-town this evening

I still love Zen Browser. Exactly the right mix of features for me; regular updates; Firefox at its core. I browse in full-screen with the sidebar set to auto-hide and it just gets out of my way in the way I need. werd.io/why-im-all-i...

Why I'm all-in on Zen Browser

After Arc's pivot to AI left power users behind, I found the browser I actually wanted.

I had a perfectly serviceable clipboard manager but damn if Pastebot 3 didn't just wipe the floor with it.

That montage bit in 'Scarface' but it's just these two dickheads

Today I learned about belaying rope and belayed mountaineers!

Can anything be belayed or is it only orders?

Hannity: "My President, Lindsey probably has a heavenly version of Mar-a-Lago. It may even be a little bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if he added one big beautiful ballroom and an arch somewhere on the property. Because he would want to obviously duplicate his dearest friend in life. You."
